How to solve the problem about loading resx resources dll on iOS (.NET MAUI)
Background:
I want to do the localizations feature on my .NET MAUI app. I follow this video (https://youtu.be/cf4sXULR7os) to do that.
In the iOS simulator, the localization feature and loading the resources.dll is running preferably. (like the following)
But once I deploy it to my physical iPhone device, the feature does not work and outputs the following message when I change the language.

So, I checked the app folder on the "Files" app and confirmed there is no ".resources.dll" in it.
Why are there no ".resources.dll" output and deployed when installed, and how can I solve them? Because as I know, language resources (resx->dll) should place in a sub-folder like this:
